Player News

Free-agent C Andre Gurode (Raiders) reached out to the Miami Dolphins after the team updated the status of C Mike Pouncey (hip). The team returned the call Tuesday, June 24, and will not bring him in for a visit, but did not close the door on bringing him in at some point.

Dallas Cowboys officials will be speaking with C Andre Gurode's agent, Kennard McGuire, Monday, Aug. 29, regarding his status with the team. Owner/general manager Jerry Jones said Gurode was benched during the team's preseason game Saturday, Aug. 27, for business decisions. The Cowboys are thinking of either cutting Gurode or keeping him at a reduced salary.

The Dallas Cowboys are considering parting with C Andre Gurode. The impediment to trading Gurode is his salary of about $4.5 million. He also is coming off knee surgery. However, Gurode is a good enough player for teams to think about making a deal.

Dallas Cowboys C Andre Gurode (knee) had right knee surgery less than a month ago, which was a surprise to the team's officials. Head coach Jason Garret said they are viewing him as day to day, but they hope his knee responds well to treatment and he is able to return to the field soon.

Three Dallas Cowboys' veterans met with WR Dez Bryant Saturday, April 23, reports Gerry Fraley, of The Dallas Morning News. According to a message from Bryant's Twitter account, he had a lunch meeting with QB Tony Romo, C Andre Gurode and LB Keith Brooking at an unknown location. "Had a good time," Bryant said on his account.

Gurode and TE Jason Witten have said in recent weeks that players would be reaching out to Bryant in an attempt to help him through current problems and put him on the right track.

Bryant's offseason has included a run-in with security at a shopping mall and having two lawsuits filed against him, alleging the non-payment of more than $850,000 in jewelry and sports tickets.
